Cleaning up...

I don't know about you, but I save everything. i always think i will need it someday so I should save it. What is it? It is just about anything from paid bills to an extra screw left over from a job. I have saved so much stuff that I myself don't know what I have or half the time where it is. This brings me to the point of my blog. I save stuff thinking I will need it one day, the thing is that when that one day comes I forgot where I put it so I go out and buy another. You see I create so much clutter that when I need something I rather go and buy it than waste useful time looking for it. So I, with the aid of my son ?Dave, got rid of a whole lot of it, junk! I also cleaned out my kitchen cabinets. There was so much stuff under there you would not believe me if I told you. Now there is so much space under my cabinets and in my bedroom closet...I feel good since it feels clean now. And the few things I did keep are handy where I can get them with no trouble at all. i cleaned out my file cabinet, I had coupons and expired junk back from 1986. That stuff was older than my son Dave, he was born in '87. Some of that stuff been with me so long that I did not want to part wit it. But, I did and as I said less clutter. I condensed about 6 boxes and numerous bags, into two boxes, one of which is a plastic under the bed storage unit.

So, if you also have saved stuff throughout the years, clean-up! As an example of how hard it is to find something when you have so much clutter, even organized clutter, is the example of when i was looking for the Deed to this property a couple of weeks ago, I never found it, I in fact had to purchase a copy of it. Now with my new found space I can tell you exactly where it can be found.

Don't complain that you don't have enough space, make good use of the space you already have by cleaning up...
